BANANAS#2 -Lyrics Wayne Gillespie
(Music: W.Gillespie/R.Grosser/G.Catt)
1) Give me bananas and tomatoes too
You don’t know what I like about you
Give me the fever, give me bamboo
Give me paprika in my stew
Oh you don’t know, you don’t know what I like
About you...it’s all about you
I look into the mirror and all I see
All I see is you
2) You wear your best but you feel your worst
Hear the pounding of that desert surf
You wear your bear rugs high upon the wall
You’re looking smooth but your, feeling small
I don’t know, I don’t know what I like
About you…it’s all about you
And when you’re upset you know
I get upset like you
Just like you, all I see is you….
3) The water runs down just like ..
The Nile …denial
Sax Solo
4) You give me bananas and tomatoes too
Your whipping post and your slave’s tattoo
You give me the jungle you give me the vine
The more we struggle we become entwined.
Now I know now I know what I like
About you…it’s all about you
Your medicine glass a drachm or two
It’s all about you
It’s all about…END
